Apparent West Ham transfer target Alfie Mawson has said speculation linking him with a move away from Swansea is "all talk."

The 23-year-old is reportedly about to be subject of a £25m bid from West Ham but other clubs such as Everton, Spurs and Watford are also circling around the centre half to take him away from Wales.

The Hornets are the latest club to be linked with a swoop as the Swans seem doomed to Premier League relegation, but new manager Carlos Carvalhal has insisted Mawson won't be going anhywhere.

Swans chairman Huw Jenkins has also revealed the club has had no bids for Mawson so far, nor would they entertain any, with football.london understanding that the board are concerned of a PR backlash should they sell their prized asset.

Belatedly, Mawson has now spoken out about his future at the club as he still has two-and-a-half years to run on his current Swansea contract. Mawson didn't rule out a move but insisted he is happy at the club.

Mawson, via our friends at Wales Online, said: "Whatever happens, happens. If offers come in then that is nothing to do with me. All I can do is affect my performances. I'm a Swansea player and I want to do well here.

"It is flattering to hear certain things but I have got to do what I can for this club. I'm contracted for another two-and-a-half years after this, whether that is in the Championship or hopefully in the Premier League, I am signed to be here so that's all it is at the moment, it's just talk."
